IOSServerFlag (java-client 3.2.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- java.lang.Enum<IOSServerFlag>
- - io.appium.java_client.service.local.flags.IOSServerFlag

All Implemented Interfaces:

ServerArgument, Serializable, Comparable<IOSServerFlag>
```
public enum IOSServerFlag
extends Enum<IOSServerFlag>
implements ServerArgument
```
Here is the list of iOS specific server arguments. All flags are optional, but some are required in conjunction with certain others. The full list is available here: http://appium.io/slate/en/master/?ruby#appium-server-arguments iOS specific arguments are marked by (IOS-only)

    Xcode 6 has a bug on some platforms where a certain simulator can only be launched without error if all other simulator devices are first deleted. This option causes Appium to delete all devices other than the one being used by Appium. Note that this is a permanent deletion, and you are responsible for using simctl or xcode to manage the categories of devices used with Appium
    . Default: false
  - TRACE_DIRECTORY_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
public static final IOSServerFlag TRACE_DIRECTORY_ABSOLUTE_PATH
```
    Absolute path to directory Appium use to save ios instruments traces, defaults to /appium-instruments
    Default: null
- Method Detail
  - values
```
public static IOSServerFlag[] values()
```
    Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:
```
for (IOSServerFlag c : IOSServerFlag.values())
    System.out.println(c);
```
    Returns:
    an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
  - valueOf
```
public static IOSServerFlag valueOf(String name)
```
    Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
    
    Parameters:
    name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
    
    Returns:
    the enum constant with the specified name
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
    
    NullPointerException - if the argument is null
  - getArgument
```
public String getArgument()
```
    Specified by:
    
    getArgument in interface ServerArgument
